""An eye-opening read for every mother. Mama Sex is an intimate examination of what happens to women's sexuality during the transition to motherhood and beyond. Forbes gives us a fresh take on topics rarely discussed in public and examines why we need to change the narrative and help mothers reclaim their identity."" --- Melissa Hogenboom, Author of Breadwinners and the Motherhood Complex ""This book has the power to shift how women understand themselves, especially at the intersection of motherhood, sexuality, and identity. It makes visible the systems that quietly shape our relationships to our bodies, desire, and worth, and reframes experiences so often treated as personal failures as collective, inherited realities. Reading it offers language, context, and relief: a reminder that many of the struggles women carry are not theirs alone to fix. By naming what has long gone unspoken, this book gives women permission to see their experiences with clarity and compassion, and to question the structures that have shaped them. Its impact extends far beyond individual insight, inviting broader understanding, connection, and change."" --- Paige Connell, leading thought leader on the mental load and the founder of The Turner Collective
